Demi Moore, Jenna Ortega Won Red Carpet

Demi Moore, Jenna Ortega Won Red Carpet

With perhaps one notable exception, women ruled the night at the Actor Awards, in both style and social media conversations. By a wide margin, the ladies of Hollywood outdistanced men in earned engagement at the March 1 event, according to the latest results from The Hollywood Reporter‘s Red Carpet Power Rankings, in collaboration with Launchmetrics. While that’s not unusual — women’s fashion always sparks more online attention than men’s — Bad Bunny’s strong numbers from the Grammy Awards proved that it is indeed possible for a guy to vault to the top of the list. And while one man created an undeniable frenzy when his name was called — Michael B. Jordan, who picked up the best actor trophy for Sinners and in that moment became the Oscar favorite — it didn’t move the needle in social engagement across style categories. (Jordan looked terrific in Tom Ford by Haider Ackermann regardless.) While Netflix, which streamed the awards, historically doesn’t reveal viewership data, the Red Carpet Power Rankings may offer an indication of the event’s audience …

‘Sinners’ Wins But Will It Impact Oscars?

‘Sinners’ Wins But Will It Impact Oscars?

For months, One Battle After Another was winning everything, including the top prizes at the Critics Choice Awards on Jan. 4, Golden Globe Awards on Jan. 11, Directors Guild Awards on Feb. 7, BAFTA Awards on Feb. 22 and Producers Guild Awards on Saturday. But at the Actor Awards (formerly the SAG Awards) on Sunday — the first day of March, and smack dab in the middle of the weeklong final round of Oscars voting — the other big Warner Bros. contender, Sinners, showed major signs of life. Indeed, Ryan Coogler’s blockbuster genre film walked away with the prize for best cast — vanquishing not only One Battle but also Hamnet, Marty Supreme and Frankenstein — and, in the night’s biggest surprise, best actor for Michael B. Jordan, calling into question the conventional wisdom about not only the best picture Oscar race, but also the long-presumed frontrunner status of Marty Supreme’s Timothée Chalamet in the best actor Oscar race (which was also dinged at last weekend’s BAFTA Awards). Before going any further, it must be acknowledged …

Actor Awards 2026: Full Winners List As Sinners And The Studio Triumph

Actor Awards 2026: Full Winners List As Sinners And The Studio Triumph

After an awards season that’s so far been pretty all over the place in terms of who’s won what, Sunday night’s Actor Awards has thrown out some interesting new frontrunners with less than two weeks to go until the Oscars. Over the last two months, awards in major acting categories have been handed out in pretty much all directions (with the exception of Best Actress, with Jessie Buckley’s win now looking even more locked in). But this year’s Actor Awards – previously known as the SAG Awards until this year’s name change – has given us a better idea how things could go down at the Oscars later this month. Sunday’s ceremony saw Amy Madigan and Sean Penn winning for their supporting performances in Weapons and One Battle After Another, respectively. Meanwhile, Sinners was the top-winning film of the night, triumphing in Outstanding Performance By A Cast In A Motion Picture, with Michael B Jordan’s Best Actor victory making Timothée Chalamet’s Oscar win a little less of a sure thing. Michael B Jordan, Amy Madigan …

Actor Awards 2026 Snubs, Surprises: Timothée Chalamet, Keri Russell

Actor Awards 2026 Snubs, Surprises: Timothée Chalamet, Keri Russell

Despite critical acclaim and early awards accolades for his starring role in Marty Supreme, Timothée Chalamet suffered his second best actor loss at a high-profile Oscar precursor award show in a week, losing the Actor Award to Sinners‘ Michael B. Jordan after losing the BAFTA Awards’ best actor prize to surprise winner Robert Aramayo of I Swear. Additionally, Marty Supreme overall was shut out at the Actor Awards. The film seemed like a strong performer among SAG-AFTRA voters when nominations were announced earlier this year, with the Actor Awards even nominating Odessa A’zion for best supporting actress, as part of the film’s three nominations, including for the top prize of best cast. Marty Supreme did, however, receive somewhat of a viral marketing moment with host Kristen Bell’s star-studded table tennis tournament, the winner of which received a trophy that resembled Chalamet. Marty Supreme‘s fellow three-time Actor Award nominee Frankenstein also went home empty-handed at the ceremony that streamed live on Netflix, which released the Guillermo Del Toro film. Despite going into the Actor Awards with …

Timothee Chalamet Jokes, Red Carpet, Date With Mom at 2026 Actor Awards

Timothee Chalamet Jokes, Red Carpet, Date With Mom at 2026 Actor Awards

Wondering what Timothée Chalamet‘s night at the 2026 Actor Awards was like? The Hollywood Reporter has you covered. On Sunday night, Chalamet was nominated for best actor at the awards show for his role as ping-pong hustler Marty Mauser in Marty Supreme. During this year’s awards season, the actor has won at the Golden Globes, Critics’ Choice Awards and the Palm Springs International Film Festival. But he did not win at the Actor Awards. Chalamet’s performance in Josh Safdie’s A24 film was one he trained extensively for. Tied to the film’s Christmas release, Marty Supreme‘s table tennis consultant, Diego Schaaf, praised Chalamet’s commitment to training for the character. “He wasn’t interested in doing the minimum. Even when he got it right, he’d say, ‘Let’s do it again,’” Schaaf told THR. “This was very athletically demanding. He memorized every point, every movement, every shot. Timing was critical — some shots float, others travel fast — and he understood that immediately. He performed unbelievably well.” Red Carpet Arrival The 30-year-old was sporting a black and white Prada …

Best Dressed at the Actor Awards 2026

Best Dressed at the Actor Awards 2026

No one should be surprised that only a handful of the men and women attending the 2026 Actor Awards on Sunday night embraced the requested dressing theme, “Reimagining Hollywood Glamour from the ’20s and ’30s.” It’s a fine idea and part of the partnership between Elle magazine and Netflix, also with the thought of perhaps elevating the event’s red carpet so it might rival May’s Met Gala. Unfortunately, there’s a vast difference between the two evenings, one an industry spotlight and the other rooted in artful statements at a museum benefit. At the industry-focused Actor Awards, no one should be faulted for wearing what they prefer, regardless of a requested dress code. Even so, many found ways to channel the requested decades in ways both subtle and artful. From bias-cut slip dresses to double-breasted suits and tuxedos, stars and their stylists opted for old-Hollywood glam without veering into flapper or mobster territory. Beyond the 1920s and ’30s, other decades that likewise cemented the marriage of Hollywood film and high fashion also were much in evidence, …

Seth Rogen Calls Out WGA West Awards Cancellation at 2026 Actor Awards

Seth Rogen Calls Out WGA West Awards Cancellation at 2026 Actor Awards

Seth Rogen was clearly keeping an eye on Hollywood news ahead of the 2026 Actor Awards. The Studio star offered a few barbs at the Writers Guild of America West during SAG-AFTRA’s 2026 Actor Awards, formerly known as the SAG Awards, when he took the stage to accept the best comedy actor prize. After the writers union’s West Coast division canceled its upcoming awards show, set for Sunday, March 8, due to an ongoing strike from its staff union, Rogen joked that SAG-AFTRA was “able to pay your own employees enough to keep the award show from being canceled.” “Take notes, WGA,” he added. His comments, which came in his first of multiple appearances onstage Sunday accepting various awards, were part of his acceptance speech for best actor in a comedy series for The Studio. He later accepted the best comedy ensemble win for the cast and for his late co-star Catherine O’Hara, who won best actress in a comedy series. In his speech, Rogen confessed that he’d “always honestly kind of considered myself more …

Actor Awards 2026 Best and Worst Moments

Actor Awards 2026 Best and Worst Moments

The 2026 Actor Awards were not only filled with plenty of comedic comments but also several heartfelt ones. From Sinners star Delroy Lindo‘s emotional acceptance speech and Weapons actress Amy Madigan‘s joke about the trophy’s genitalia to Michael B. Jordan fulfilling his lifelong dream with his first win and Seth Rogen recalling sweet memories of the late Catherine O’Hara on the set of The Studio, here are some of the most memorable moments from Sunday night’s awards ceremony honoring actors. Michael B. Jordan’s First Win for ‘Sinners’ Fulfills Lifelong Dream Michael B. Jordan won the Actor Award for best actor for his role in Sinners. Jordan, who stars as twins in Ryan Coogler’s Warner Bros. film, hugged his mother and took to the stage to accept the award. “I wasn’t expecting that. I’m so honored and privileged to be nominated in categories with people and actors and humans that I love, and I love their work and what they contribute to our craft and just rise to has been unbelievable,” he said. So, thank you for welcoming …

Sinners Wins for Outstanding Performance by Cast at 2026 Actor Awards

Sinners Wins for Outstanding Performance by Cast at 2026 Actor Awards

Sinners is officially on the board. The most-nominated movie at this year’s Oscars — and, for that matter, in the history of the Oscars — has won at the 2026 Actor Awards for best ensemble, a crucial precursor in the Oscars’ best-picture race. It’s also Sinners’ first top win at one of the major Oscar precursor awards so far this season, with One Battle After Another having effectively run the table to this point — including at last night’s Producers Guild Awards.  Now we’ve got a race. Sinners was favored by many to win here, given its strength with casting/ensemble precursor awards, but SAG-AFTRA tends to bestow its top prize to an overall industry favorite — whether clear Oscar front-runners like Oppenheimer and Everything Everywhere All at Once or underdogs like Parasite and CODA. Of course, all of those movies went on to win the top Oscar, a trajectory that Sinners will hope to emulate.  “This project is anointed, and from that standpoint, we are all anointed to be on this incredible journey created by …

Sean Penn Wins Supporting Actor, One Battle After Another Actor Awards

Sean Penn Wins Supporting Actor, One Battle After Another Actor Awards

Sean Penn has fended off stiff competition to win best supporting actor at the Actor Awards 2026, putting the One Battle After Another villain in pole position to win the Oscar in two weeks — a stunning turn of events after Penn had lost the Golden Globe, the Critics Choice Award and most other precursors.  Penn’s momentum began last weekend at the BAFTA Awards, where he came out of nowhere to pull off a massive upset in the equivalent category, overtaking frontrunner Stellan Skarsgard (Sentimental Value). While he was not widely considered win-competitive a few weeks ago, Penn will now go into the Oscars having taken home both trophies from industry groups with significant Academy overlap. This is to say, it’s safe to consider him the frontrunner at this point. And yet: Penn was not in attendance for either tonight’s ceremony nor last weekend’s BAFTA Awards. He’s eschewed the spotlight relative to his One Battle colleagues but has been present for other shows over the season like the Golden Globes (where he was also nominated). …
